I have to vent: I posted on here about wanting to take on adopting a pup who was deaf. I reached out to the shelter they somewhat responded, then just left as that. I assumed maybe he luckily got adopted. Since has been 2 weeks and a half, now nothing since initial contact. I try to call and no answer. So I genuinely hope the dog has found a forever home!
I have reached out to several shelters. No one responds and adopt appt times suck. They’re all far out and the dogs are gone by then. Which is I understand they can’t promise the dog. Which in my opinion is good on them because if they reserved dogs then they get a “no shows” then the poor thing isn’t adopted.
The saddest part is I have been avidly looking for months for a dog. I have noticed people adopt these dogs as puppies then return when too much work or old! Maybe they adopted being lonely during covid and now they don’t care because back to life for them. I have seen same dogs come back. It breaks my heart how people don’t take on pets as forever. If I knew these people were giving genuinely loving forever homes I’d keep my mouth shut.
Like all I want to do is have a dog to love forever and save them the right way from a shelter. I know I can provide a stable loving home. This is so hard.
I feel so bad for my dog to, he adores other dogs. Yet with covid we have not been able to socialize besides with family member pets from time to time. I literally got him like a couple weeks before initial quarantine. My dog constantly whines when he sees people walk their dogs out the window. It’s just really sad to see. We take him on daily walks, play with him and on weekend hikes. Yet I can tell he wants a dog companion
